fix ITER_PIPE interaction with direct_IO
by making sure we call iov_iter_advance() on original iov_iter even if direct_IO (done on its copy) has returned 0. It's a no-op for old iov_iter flavours and does the right thing (== truncation of the stuff we'd allocated, but not filled) in ITER_PIPE case. Failures (e.g. -EIO) get caught and dealt with by cleanup in generic_file_read_iter(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
